'You may lead a Lewisman with a hair, but you won't drag him with a cable'. Thus spoke Lord Leverhulme, the proprietor of the island in 1920. A mere two years into his tenure, he had already seen enough of the people to know that they were versed in the art of subtlety, as well as masters at being thrawn.
I've always been interested in this hard-headed northern businessman. He thought he knew what was best for the crofters of this island – and perhaps he did, in economic terms – but he also reckoned without the strong attachment the Hebridean feels to his land.
It is hugely to his credit that he was willing to gift the very terrain that caused such dispute, back to the people who had opposed him. I wonder how a successful entrepreneur managed to set aside ego to this extent; his financial worries notwithstanding, it was a magnanimous gesture.
Attending meetings of the Stornoway Trust, which manages the estate of the same name, I frequently look upon his portrait, which hangs on the boardroom wall. I think he would find the plans and projects, the obstacles and objections strangely familiar. And I imagine him rubbing his hands with relish, and getting stuck in, bluff wee northerner that he was.
The Trust is guardian of his legacy, yes – but his intention in gifting the land to the community was that the community should run it, not Leverhulme's way, but the Lewis way.
Just last week, I took a tour of the Castle policies with the man who is responsible for the day to day management of the estate. He definitely has a name, but is known to everyone simply as 'the Factor'. With him, I got a palpable sense of the way that history is a living thing for us in Lewis. Conversation flowed seamlessly around which was Lady Matheson's favourite picnic spot, to a Second World War bunker, to the Millennium Forest project, to a prehistoric chambered cairn, to the Castle School, to Mac an t-Srònaich, to speed bumps, to Lord Leverhulme e fhèin.
I think we generally have an easy relationship with our past. Modern kit houses sit on the site of, or even alongside early white houses and, sometimes, the tobhta of the family blackhouse. We incorporate patronymics into our identity, so we are part of a line which stretches back through history. And the different names we go by – our forefathers' – inhabit and shape history at different times.
My maternal seanair helped build the iron water well, a landmark in the Castle Grounds. It commemorates a sensitive individual who used to moor his yacht in Stornoway for the peace and quiet. How very strange that he should be memorialised here in that way, and that generations of Lewis children should know the name of the reclusive Robert Alfred Colby Cubbin.
Whatever the plaque says, though, for me it is a monument to Alex Hearach, my grandfather.
Following the Lewis way means guarding our identity. It involves maintaining a relationship with the past in order to move forward. The more I contemplate our close connection with history here in the island, therefore, the more fiercely I am determined to see all of our heritage protected.
We cannot say 'yes' to Lady Matheson, or Mac an t-Srònaich, and 'no thanks' to our Christian legacy. There is something incomplete in our understanding of Stornoway's history if we believe that it includes Lord Leverhulme, but excludes Rev Kenneth MacRae; if we embrace Latha na Dròbh but, frankly, find òrduighean Steòrnabhaigh a bit of an embarrassment.
You cannot separate our civic and religious past, you see. Literally, sometimes. When the Town Hall was razed to the ground in 1918, the clock was lost and folk had no way to tell the time, unless they visited Sime's shop on Church Street. So, the Town Council came up with an ingenious plan – they erected a public clock on Kenneth Street Free Church.
The building belonged to the Free Church, and the clock to the Council, but the time that moved its hands, that belongs to God. We so seldom look beyond what is right in front of us; we accept the face that history presents, and we do not question.
But we should. I have always thought of that graceful stone monument in the Castle Grounds, built in part by Alex Hearach, as the iron water well. Walking there last week, though, something that now seems rather obvious was casually alluded to: the actual well is some feet away, anonymously supplying the man-made structure with pure, clean water.
That, I think, is as good a metaphor as any I've found for what Christianity has been to the history of this place. It is always there, feeding us living water, and giving real meaning to all the events that we foolishly believe are authored by ourselves. While we are busily cleaning up and repointing the facade, the water continues to spring forth and give us life.
We need have no fear that particular well will ever run dry. But equally, it's important that no one should ever be permitted to stop its mouth.

London Blitz B vs. Essex Spartans
May 14, 2017 2:00 pm BAFA NL SFC II East 2017
London Blitz B 0 0 6 13 19 Win
Essex Spartans 3 0 0 0 3 Loss
The winning streak was short-lived for Essex Spartans as missing crucial players meant they failed to maintain their lead and conceded 19 points in the second half of Sunday's game against the Blitz 'B' Team.
The game began badly for the Spartans on the first play as #11 Norris Owusu fumbled the catch and the ball was intercepted straight away by the Blitz. Spartans quickly found their feet however and #35 Oli Page tipped the ball for #51 Harry Shelton to recover, putting the Spartans offense back on the field.
Both sides looked equal for the majority of the first quarter; Spartans #13 Felix Olu looked likely for a TD with a powerful run through the Blitz defense but was brought down at 15 yards.
Spartans #19 Ashton Lord then stepped up and ran the ball to the end zone, but was flagged for being out of bounds and the points were not given. The visitors took consolation in a superb field goal from #84 Mitch Arthur on the fourth down to give the Spartans a 0-3 lead at the end of the first quarter.
The two sides barely moved from between the 30-yard markers during the second quarter, with one or two first downs being achieved but with no real significant yardage gain. Arthur sacked the Blitz QB in the dying seconds for a big loss and the half ended with the Spartans leading perilously by three points.
The Blitz came immediately into play and put the lead in danger as they earned a first down right away and lined up at 5 yards. A 5-yard penalty was awarded for delaying the kick-off and so they were pushed back to a still-uncomfortable 10 yards, but the Spartans defense clung on and made it to the turnover with their lead intact.
Not for long however, as the Spartans fumbled on their second down and Blitz recovered, and scored their TD close to the boundary with no conversion. The remainder of the third quarter continued very much in the way of the second, with a handful of small yardage penalties and continuous turnovers with little progress either way.
Blitz B went for the TD early in the fourth as #11 Will Bentley battled through a tiring Essex defense for the six points. Just minutes later, Blitz QB #3 Timothee Liechti did the same and with a one-point conversion kicked over the bar, the game was wrapped up at 19-3 with two painful minutes left on the clock.
The Essex Spartans return to practice in Grays before their second home game of 2017 against the East Essex Sabres on Sunday 4th June.

After returning from Kazbegi the unsettled spring weather returned and after several days getting myself far too comfortable in Tbilisi I thought I better return to the mountains to restore some sense of credibility! Just a short overnight trip but a good stretch of the legs to get from the plain right up to the peaks, as well as a nice flight on each day to enhance the experience.
I took the metro (something worth seeing, very deep underground) a couple of stops to Isani and took the first minibus out to Lagodekhi. Given it was 7 LER compared to the 10 LER for Kazbegi I assumed it would be a shorter trip but it took the same two and a half hours and I only started walking toward the mountain just after 11am. This meant I didn't really give myself time to get fully provisioned (having a fairly random collection of various Georgian foodstuffs) and I wasn't overly amused at having to answer silly questions for the parks people before promptly losing the route for the first part of the walk to the base of the mountain (although with plenty of 4wd tracks and open forest it didn't really matter).
The birdsong and sunlit forest was really beautiful, although I didn't stop for photos until it clouded over. Despite reaching cloud from 1700 metres upwards I put in a spirited effort with a continuous ascent to the hut. Here I dropped the pack and went to the spring for a drink. While still in cloud the run down hut and surrounding rubbish weren't inspiring so I decided to continue up to bushline and beyond. Then on cue the cloud started to disappear and I found myself walking along a ridge with wind blowing up the face.
The cloud situation had definitely improved but there was still patches of cloud forming in front and cloud above, although the higher mid level cloud was blowing away. With expansive swathes of forest in front and below I made sure I was high enough up the ridge to face land if things didn't go too well – I'd noted the wind up the face wasn't very consistent. Soon enough I launched and it was quite nice, although I started to realise that the wind from my left was a bit stronger than I'd thought. I had a spur between me and the wind and it took some perserverance and some faith to find some good bubbles in the lee to get high enough to push some bar and get myself on the right side of the spur.
From here it took no time at all to soar up to 3000 metres, where I met cloud. It was nice to see a large number of chamois on the cliffs and I had a strange three second mental blank where I forgot which country I was in. I hung around for a little while to see if I could get higher (if the cloud would clear) but ended up gliding over the plateau and landing. It was actually tricky to get down the last 50 metres as the wind was getting close to trim speed. A lovely evening walk followed, I had six kilometres to the lake on the Russian border but cut it short when I found a shepherds hut with half a roof – better than nothing. I actually used some of the loose palings to shelter my bivvy in case the interior wall fell down in my sleep!
The next morning I woke with the light and was walking at 6:00am. I dropped my pack at the lake and continued upwards into the thin air.
A few stops this time before I reached the high ridge at around 3400m. I'd decided against ascending the high peak as soon as I'd seen the route – a long bluffy ridge and / or a drop in a snowy avalanche bowl. The winds were very light from the SW on the ridge and I had great views not only of the local mountains but also 70 km away the peaks bordering Tusheti.
Less precipitation on this side of Georgia, despite parks staff warnings there isn't much snow left at this time of year (although I hear it's been a mild winter in terms of snowfall).
It was time to go and fly! The clear morning views were now being obscured by building cumulus. It didn't take long to get down to where I'd left my wing but by the time I had the wing out it was becoming unflyable. Wind had swung back to the usual SE and cloud base had fallen to 2700 metres – the height of my launch.
The previous days forecast had predicted an evening storm but the clouds beside me looked like they wouldn't wait that long! I had to get off there and then or risk being stranded in the clouds for the rest of the day.
Inflight my glide gave me plenty of height to cross the forest. Thinking of the birdsong I pondered flying the lower forested ridges in a long cross country flight, but below the inversion there was very little thermic activity. Anyway I had plenty of time so no regrets at gliding over to the next town.
As I flew over the town I heard distant screams and while lining up a final approach I heard noises of astonishment from an elderly couple and decided to land right next to them. I was reminded of the Georgian "visitors are a gift from God" mantra as the old man in particular hugged and kissed me.
As I packed up dozens more joined the throng and I soaked up my celebrity status. Nevertheless I was led away and offered a taxi at five times the going rate – no thanks – had more stares from strangers as I walked into town, had a beer with the shop owner, and got a 10 LER taxi back to the park gate at Lagodekhi. Here I once again enjoyed the forest birdsong, having a quick wash before taking the Marshrutka back to Tbilisi – amazing what you can pack into an overnight trip.

One of the most pleasurable things to do at Christmas is to spend time with your children helping them make traditional tree decorations using scraps, oddments, fabric, ribbon and tinsel. Whilst the expensive gifts we give at Christmas are high up the wish-list, its the memories of time spent together that children really treasure.
My daughters are still very nostalgic about their childhood attempts at making of these old-fashioned tree decorations and it is rather handy having a host of naughty (but cute) tree fairies to blame when presents (inevitably) get mixed up or something goes wrong on the big day!
Paint the heads and faces of all pegs in skin tones or leave pegs neutral colours. . Leave to dry overnight.
For soldiers – paint red or blue coats with black trousers beneath. Leave to dry. Draw faces, belts, buttons and hair with indelible marker or glue on sequins and wool. Use pipe cleaners for arms and a scrap of red ribbon glued in a little cylinder and onto the head for a hat. Suspend with silver or gold thread.
For tree fairies – glue a thin band of ribbon around the top "chest" area of the peg. For the skirt, cut about 8″ length of 2″ wide ribbon, (ideally pre-wired at both edges). Glue the cut edges together so they just overlap and concertina and glue one wired edge so that it ruffles into a neat "waist". Glue directly onto the body of the peg. With small children get them to choose the colours and help them with the gluing as the glue gun gets a bit hot. Use wadding to plump up the skirt. Use pipe cleaners or wired ribbon for arms and silver or gold ribbon for wings glued in a bow at the back. Children love to add hair, faces, hats and shoes – dipping glued feet in glitter – you can use PVA glue for this rather than the glue gun. Suspend the fairies with silver or gold thread.
The end results can be fabulous – and much more memorable than shop-bought decorations.
The Mad Hatter's Tea Table – The Pier Trust gave away free cups of tea for anyone sitting down to join in the fun courtesy of Dorset Tea. We like Dorset Tea. They blend a light everyday tea. Dorset Tea is from local firm Spicers who have been blending tea in Dorset for around 75 years. Steve and I sat down for a cup of course! We like being served tea by a Mad Hatter, Alice, a White Rabbit and the Queen of Hearts!
The Pier Trust had a variety of games and activities for children and families to get involved with including giant chess, croquet and huge cut outs to pose in. There were home made cakes, hot dogs and sweets to buy and a range of other stall-holders all sharing in the fun. If you want to help preserve the Pier then get in touch with them here.
One person who caught our attention was artist Anissa Lee. Anissa is a handcut paper artist whose unique creations include this innovative range of Alice in Wonderland inspired pictures, table confetti, greetings cards and wedding stationary. Anissa is artist in residence at Swansea University – but when this ends later this year we hope to see more of her back home in Dorset!

More analysis needed on King Tut 'hidden chamber': Egypt minister Khaled al-Anani
By: ArtDaily.org on Thursday, March 31st, 2016 at 11:44 pm
Further analysis is needed of the tomb of pharaoh Tutankhamun to determine if the resting place also contains the remains of legendary beauty Queen Nefertiti, Egypt's antiquities minister said Thursday. Khaled al-Anani appeared to dim some of the optimism surrounding the tomb in the ancient necropolis of Luxor after his predecessor said this month that there was a "90 percent chance" of two hidden chambers possibly containing organic material at the site. "I hope we are going to find something else, but nothing is certain at the moment," Anani told AFP outside Tutankhamun's tomb. He was speaking as new radar tests were carried out on the mausoleum. Results are expected on Friday. A study by renowned British archaeologist Nicholas Reeves has said that Nefertiti's tomb could be in a secret chamber adjoining Tutankhamun's final resting place in the Valley of Kings at Luxor in southern Egypt. Reeves, professor of archaeology at the University of Arizona, believes one

HIV AIDS Awareness Program at Bhawanipur Village
HIV/AIDS education plays a vital role in its management and prevention. Education is, therefore, a key component to help people develop insight into issues of HIV/AIDS management and assist in the creation of a safe environment which is free from discrimination and stigma.
On April 6, 2019, the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication- Rama University organized a street-play with the aim to sensitize the areas with high illiteracy level. The play empathized with people living with HIV/AIDS and spoke on the role of the community towards reducing stigma and discrimination against them. Thus, the core objective of the street play was to:
Address stigma & discrimination towards PLHAs and HIV/AIDS
Create awareness about HIV/AIDS prevention
Dispel myth & misconceptions pertaining to HIV/AIDS
Inform about the causes and prevention of HIV/AIDS
HIV doesn't discriminate therefore awareness program about its occurrence and spread is very significant in protecting the people from the epidemic.
The play was received well with the audience. It was narrated by Abhay Singh- MJMC, First Year and Anushka Mishra-BJMC, First year. The participants of the street play were Arpit Dixit- BJMC, First Year, Subhangi Mishra- BJMC, First Year, Anushka Pandey- BJMC, First Year, Divya Bajpai- BJMC, Second Year, Aditya Srivastava- BJMC, Second year, and Nishant Pal- MJMC, First Year. The script was written by Divya Bajpai-BJMC, Second Year and Jyoti Srivastava, PGDJMC.
The program was organized under the leadership and guidance of Dr. Santosh Kumar Gautam (HOD, Department of Journalism & Mass Communication-Rama University), Miss Nitika Ambastha, and Miss Nikunj (Faculties of Journalism and Mass Communication).

History of Weirton
A relatively young city incorporated in 1947, Weirton's roots date back to the mid-1700s when pioneers settled in Holiday Cove. The frontier settlement was located in a valley where Harmon Creek empties into the Ohio River, which is one of the country's major navigable waterways. The fertile valley is far enough away from the mighty Ohio River to escape devastating floods yet close enough to the river to take advantage of its fresh water and cheap transportation.
Shift in Lifestyle
The town that became Weirton had a change in lifestyle from farming and small business to industry shortly after the turn of the 20th century. In the spring of 1909, young industrialist E.T. Weir came from his hometown of Pittsburgh and purchased 105 acres of land. Weir had a sheet steel plant in Clarksburg, WV, but expansion there was impossible, so he began his search for property upon which to build a new plant. By the end of 1909, Mr. Weir had 10 mills operating. From those humble beginnings, Weirton Steel became the fifth largest steel producer in the country. In recent times, foreign steel imports and other factors have forced Weirton Steel into an ongoing recovery process.
Today's community of hardworking people evolved from that modest beginning. Immigrants from all over the world, but primarily from the European countries where they had experience with industrial type work, came to find employment in Mr. Weir's mill.
Large Growth
The influx of workers created a boomtown in the pleasant valley and as Weirton Steel grew so did the community. Four towns emerged during the early part of the century. They merged in 1947 and the city continued to grow reaching a peak population of more than 28,000 by 1970.
City Boundaries & Government
With the incorporation of towns, Weirton became the only city in the United States that sits in one state while its borders touch two other states. The city of Weirton is divided between Brooke and Hancock Counties. City government consists of a mayor and council with a city manager.

Great job, didn't try to rip me off like some others.
BigLPG did a good job on replacing the fuel pump in my car. They had the car for longer than expected but this was due to waiting a few days for parts from the main dealer. I had to call them a few times for updates (they could improve on pro active calls to keep customers up to date, I knocked a star off for this) but they were pleasant to deal with giving me good information. Once the parts were there they fitted them and tested the car within a day. The bill was a little higher than I'd hoped but they used OEM parts (Land Rover) so not totally unexpected.
Al is an incredible person, very friendly and helpful. I had to refurbish and paint my alloy wheels. Al did a fantastic job. Now my wheels look like new. Well done! Highly recommend this garage for their services!

Sprouts names restaurant veteran Gmelich as CMO – Supermarket News
Lead Marketing & Automation Services > Blog > Uncategorized > Sprouts names restaurant veteran Gmelich as CMO – Supermarket News
This site is operated by a business or businesses owned by Informa PLC and all copyright resides with them. Informa PLC's registered office is 5 Howick Place, London SW1P 1WG. Registered in England and Wales. Number 8860726.
Mark Hamstra | Dec 08, 2022
Sprouts Farmers Market said on Thursday it has named restaurant industry veteran Alisa Gmelich senior VP and chief marketing officer of the Phoenix-based chain, which is seeking to grow its digital marketing capabilities.
She fills a post that apparently had been vacant at the retailer since the departure of former CMO Gilliam Phipps earlier this year.
Gmelich, with 25 years of marketing, branding and loyalty-program experience, most recently was chief brand officer at franchised soft-pretzel chain Auntie Anne's, and before that was VP of marketing at IHOP, where she led the restaurant chain's customer growth strategy, nation programs and menu innovation. Before that, she led a marketing team for Burger King Corp. as director of U.S. sales, field marketing.
She will report directly to Nick Konat, Sprouts' president and chief operating officer, and will oversee Sprouts' marketing, advertising, and customer engagement.
"We're thrilled to welcome Alisa to the Sprouts team," said Konat. "Her experience in building brands and growing customer engagement will be instrumental in shaping Sprouts' marketing strategy to support our expansion and deepen loyalty with our customers."
Sprouts was recognized earlier this year for its mobile app-based loyalty program, which offers digital coupons and other functionality.
In a recent call with analysts, Sprouts said it has been focused on ramping up its marketing efforts via personalized communications such as email and text messaging. In the third quarter, the company said active email accounts increased by 19%, text accounts by 42% and mobile app downloads by about 15%. About 7.5% of transactions were tied to loyalty customers, up about 50% vs. last year, and the baskets of loyalty customers almost 70% higher than non-loyalty baskets.
Gmelich's previous employer, Auntie Anne's, also has a mobile app-based loyalty program called Pretzel Perks.
Sprouts, which operates more than 370 stores across the country specializing in natural and organic products and value-priced produce, is also known for its community tie-ins, such as its recent Day of Service volunteer event series.
"I am extremely humbled to join Sprouts, a brand that I've long admired for innovation and purpose," said Gmelich. "Providing communities access to healthy, affordable foods is more important today than ever before, and I look forward to helping the brand connect even further with customers nationwide in meaningful ways with the products they need and desire."

Hogarth's Moral Geography
Co-organised by the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art and Sir John Soane's Museum
To coincide with the Hogarth: Place and Progress exhibition at the Sir John Soane's Museum, this one-day workshop will explore the moral geography of Hogarth's images and the environments they represent. Papers by a range of international speakers will discuss the idea of moral geography in relation to Hogarth and his contemporaries. Hogarth's famous Modern Moral Subjects are entirely fictional, but their principal characters' progress towards death or high office is also a physical progress through particular places and buildings in London. How do we best make sense of these moral and physical forms of passage? This workshop, as well as looking at the moral geography of Hogarth's London, is interested in the relationship between his work and literary and pictorial alternatives, as well as its legacies for contemporary culture. The programme includes a visit to the exhibition.

Q: Always show extended items for frontend user I created an extension in TYPO3 8.7 and extended fe_users with new field "acceptedagb". It is only shown if I select "Tx_Feuserextend_User" in data type. So is it possible to show the new fields always, also if nothing is selected? On other extensions like "news" it is possible ...
thanks for help!
martin

A: I solved this for me to set default value in page TSConfig:
TCAdefaults.fe_users.tx_extbase_type = Tx_Feuserextend_User

A: The extension does a bit more magic as it generates proxy classes.
What you can do is this in your TypoScript
config.tx_extbase.persistence.classes {
    YourVendor\YourNamespace\Domain\Model\User {
        mapping {
            tableName = fe_users
        }
    }
 }

The model would look like this
<?php

namespace YourVendor\YourNamespace\Domain\Model;

use TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Domain\Model\FrontendUser;

class User extends FrontendUser
{

    /**
     * @var string
     */
    protected $addresses;

    ... getter / setters

 }

Now you can use your model everywhere in your extension.

Important to know: Everywhere, where the original model TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Domain\Model\FrontendUser is used, the new property is still not available and there is no real way to add it there.

Paul & Amy continue their Best of The Decade miniseries, picking their favorite films from each year of the 2010s! This episode focuses on the years 2016-2019, and they'll discuss a misunderstood technical achievement, a groundbreaking horror debut, and a centuries-spanning meditation on death, among many others. Plus: looking back on an infamous Oscar debacle.
Next week is the final episode of our Best Of The Decade series! Follow us on Twitter @Unspooled, get more info at unspooledpod.com and don't forget to rate, review & subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts. Photo credit: Kim Troxall

I'll have more to say later about the rest of the decade but I am mildly busy at work right now.
I liked Call Me By Your Name okay but no one ever talks about how it's a grown man grooming a 17 year old to sleep with him. The movie is very well acted and shot but it's still about statutory rape in a lot of the US.

People have talked about that in discussions I've had on the movie.
I think it's that for a lot of gay men this is accurately representative of their formative sexual experiences, so they are okay with it. There's a lot to unpack there.
My personal picks for these years:
2017: 20th Century Women, La La Land
2018: Lady Bird, Phantom Thread
2019 (a serious work in progress here): A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, Knives Out (also Parasite, but that's not American)
AlmostAGhost 2718
Duke of Montanero
Haven't listened to the ep yet but my picks:
2016: Moonlight, Arrival
2017: Get Out, Lady Bird*
2018: Black Panther, If Beale Street Could Talk, Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse (bonus b/c I flipflop all the time which superhero movie I like more)
2019: I dunno yet. No pick for me. I still have to watch a lot. Current faves are Ad Astra, Parasite, Lighthouse. I'm surprised they'd cover 2019 since they could easily just wait and do it in Feb at Oscar-time like they did last year.
@sycasey 2.0 is Lady Bird not 2017?
Whoops, I need to redo that. I left 2018 out!
2018: Roma, Eighth Grade (If Roma doesn't count then First Reformed)
1 hour ago, sycasey 2.0 said:
I haven't brought up the subject of the protagonist's age with friends (I also haven't seen it), but is it usually 17 with a post doc student or just barely 18 (just out of high school) and with someone older?
I mean, it's less creepy than the age difference in Manhattan (Woody Allen's personal life aside) which was a 17 year old and a 40 year old, but still.
Fwiw, I believe the age of consent in most the US wouldn't classify 17 as statutory rape, but I think it is close to 50 percent (weighted by population - a lot of Midwestern states have it at 16, IIRC - which l, growing up in California, found to be... weird. Which now as I write that makes the, "this wasn't an uncommon experience at 17," seeming more likely).
Then I'll leave it as it's not really my place to say but that is a sad realization. I do think a lot of straight people ignored it because the incident happened to a boy instead of a girl
2016: Moonlight, Paterson, Certain Women
My real favorite is the fall episode of Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life which I can technically count as a movie right?
2017: Get Out, Lady Bird, Good Time
I have some similar reservations to Amy for Get Out. I'm not holding out for Jordan Peele to better it but I find it's a tad inconsistent. I feel like the humor takes away from the horror. I still respect it a lot of its strengths though.
2018: Sorry To Bother You, Eighth Grade
I'm still waiting on seeing a few more movies before making a 2019 list.
For a lot of these movies, I wouldn't put them on a list of the 100 greatest as they are just my favorites. I'd seriously consider Moonlight and Get Out and that's about it. Maybe it's recency bias against them but we're talking top 100 of all time not just movies I like a bunch.

Also portrayed by an actor who was what, 20 or 21 at the time.
I suspect it also makes people feel less uncomfortable with age issues when the face portraying it isn't actually that young.
Bolded are my best 10-13 of the decade list, italics are more honorable mentions. (I'm going by release dates on letterboxd, which gets me into trouble for 2019 since half of my 2019 movies were released in 2018). Sorry for all the spacing, I first typed this up in a google doc and pasted.
*: directed by a woman
+: directed by a person of color
2016 - Moonlight (+)
I only caught up with Silence recently, still evaluating it. Andrew Garfield might have been too weepy for my liking in it.
Moonlight - I couldn't tell if I misheard if Paul said he couldn't think of another movie like it or if he said, he could only think of artsy European films to get another movie like it. Anyhow, Barry Jenkins referenced Wong Kar Wai as a strong influence on the film (I'd say mostly In the Mood for Love, some Happy Together) - which were movies that touched me deeply in my developmental years. I didn't get that emotional response from Moonlight which makes me think it's more just me being dead-inside in my later years.
2016 is a good year for horror directed by women
Raw*, The Love Witch*, I am the Pretty Young Thing in Your House*, and Under the Shadow*.
If you liked Parasite (+), The Handmaiden (+) was released this year, which if you haven't seen, might be worth checking out (I don't recall it having the socio-economic commentary that Parasite has though) - you might like it.
2017 - In a year that had The Phantom Thread, The Florida Project, First Reformed, Zama*, Lady Bird *, and It Comes at Night… the sole movie that made my best of the decade list was… The Death of Stalin? Yeah, looking at that list, it kind of surprises me as well. I really like well done, political satire and this hit the sweet spot for me. I think for a few years now I've been wanting to see a dark comedy of the final days of the czars before the bolshevick revolution. This transition of power seemed like the closest thing I could hope for. It's no Strangelove but it's the best work I've seen from Iannucci (IMO). Though admittedly, this detail is a reminder that the "better than" relation of ranking movies is not induced from a larger set (best of the decade) to a smaller set (best of the year) - the latter, it's hard imagining I'd take Death of Stalin over both The Phantom Thread and The Florida Project. Yeah, there's mathematical terminology for this type of stuff.
I'm less enthralled with Get Out (+) than some people are. I enjoyed. It's good. I'm really glad it did as well as it did. I hope we keep getting a lot more Jordan Peele movies (I still haven't seen Us). I just don't love/think it's an all time great movie.
2018 - Sorry to Bother You (+), Annihilation
Remember when I said I liked political satire… Yeah, Sorry to Bother You shouldn't be any surprise after 2017. Annihilation was definitely a tough call. Stalker is a better movie, it is so much doing the same things as Stalker - but I really do like Stalker (despite how infrequently I seem to see it).
The style and sounds of Roma (+) has remained with me. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is great.
As part of calling out movies from women and people of color:
If Beale Street Could Talk (+)
High Life (*)
Shoplifters (+)
Leave No Trace (*)
2019: Nothing from this year is making my best of decade.
As I said before half of my 2019 viewing is showing up as 2018.
So far, the movie that's sticking with me the most and am looking forward to revisiting at some point is… The Lighthouse.
Callouts for POC and women:
Parasite (+)
Atlantics (*+)
The Last Black Man in San Francisco (+) - lusciously shot, especially the interiors. It felt like a movie that was building towards something, but as Amy pointed out, that ending wasn't good. At least, it didn't really seem to work for me (I would have to go into the detail of my issues with most of the play, plus why does it exist?), but still - go see it.
Horror Noire (*+) - if you want a short documentary on African Americans in horror films, i.e. more a movie to lead to other movies
For a lot of these movies, I wouldn't put them on a list of the 100 greatest as they are just my favorites. I'd seriously consider Moonlight and Get Out and that's about it. Maybe it's recency bias against them but we're talking top 100 of all time not just movies I like a bunch.
Yea same. Moonlight and Get Out for sure, and I'd be cool with Black Panther or Spider-Verse repping superhero movies on the list if they wanted. I do think Lady Bird made a pretty decent cultural mark so maybe it could fit too.
54 minutes ago, AlmostAGhost said:
If we absolutely must include a superhero movie, I'd pick Superman: The Movie or Into The Spider-verse. I like Black Panther a lot and I'll say it's the best of the MCU, but I just can't get behind it as a top 100 movie of all time.
I didn't add American movies directed by women or people of color. I put up a few already but, again, I want to recognize some that aren't in my favorites. A lot of these are maybe not great or top 10 of the year but I think they are all worth your time.
Edge of Seventeen
Queen Of Katwe
Kingdom Of Us
The Kindergarten Teacher

The ending is why I don't understand naming it one of the best of the year. Isn't that supposed to be the whole point of the movie, where you finally understand the conceit? I was not impressed by where the film built up to.
14 minutes ago, sycasey 2.0 said:
Yeah, that's why it's on my list of callouts for the year and not my best of list. (So I'm taking your statement more at Amy naming it).
Generally, I think movies can be really good in spite of a bad ending, it usually requires a lot of cohesive stuff working and making peace with a non-ideal ending.
That didn't happen to me for LBMiSF. There were aspects in the ending that I liked, but just.... IDK.
I mean, the theme of wanting a place and having a sense of identity tied to it (and your need for it) - that made sense. IDK. I still felt it was worth watching. Just not single best of year.
16 hours ago, ol' eddy wrecks said:
Right, it's more about Amy nominating it for the best of the year. I've seen a lot of people I respect putting it high on their lists, and for me that blah ending really hurt the experience. I also felt like Blindspotting from the previous year got at similar ideas in a more dramatically satisfying way (though perhaps not as visually poetic).

A Most Peculiar Mademoiselle
Location: Deep in the heart of Texas
As always these are just my favorites of these years, and not necessarily ones I would 100% argue deserve to be on the AFI list. However, I think all of them should be watched and part of the conversation of what's considered the best of film in America. So many of my favorites end up being the indie flicks that just hardcore surprise me in the end. I was fucking SURPRISED by how much I love The Invitation when I saw it, and I've rewatched it multiple times and it still shocks me by how good it is and has now become one of my top 4 movies of all time. Things like Hearts Beat Loud and Leave No Trace are such small movies that will forever be overlooked, but they are some of the most American movies I've seen, especially when paired with what is actually on the list currently. And even though The Farewell takes place 99% in Beijing, I feel it is 100% more of an American movie than something like A Clockwork Orange.
The Invitation (IMDB has this as a 2015 movie so it typically gets lumped in that year, but it wasn't actually released for public viewing until 2016 thus my inclusion)
Captain Fantastic
FictionIsntReal 79
I'm closer to Amy's opinion on Get Out than Paul's, but I have to note that it's MUCH better made than Stepford Wives. That had looked like a made-for-tv movie. Horror is perhaps my favorite genre, and I tend to like horror-comedies less than others because the comedy is so often at the expense of the horror ("You're Next" is my favorite of the sub-genre because the horror isn't diminished). So Get Out really can't compete with the scariest horror movies, but the comedy bits with Lil' Rel Howery were great and there was some really impressive scenes like "the sunken place". Some have said that's cribbed from Under the Skin, but one might as well steal from the best.

Roma (+)
I know that Americans tend to lump all Mexicans together (although the U.S government actually considers "hispanic" an ethnicity rather than race, so it doesn't exclude being white), but in this somewhat autobiographical film the director himself is supposed to be one of the kids in the upper-class white family, and clearly racially distinct from their servant.

Yeah, I think I saw someone else also classify it that way in an earlier discussion of this topic in the recent threads and also thought, that's a tricky subject (for Americans) for the reasons you laid out (I think you also see these ethnic/class divisions show up in John Sayles' Men with Guns). Or maybe someone listed another movie that made me think of the trickiness that would be presented by Roma (probably someone listed Gravity as a movie by a PoC) - and then didn't think to call it out as I listed it here.
I think that within the United States, Cuaron would definitely be seen as a "Mexican" first, regardless of how fair-skinned or upper-class his family was there, and therefore still a "PoC" in that context. In Mexico he is probably seen as "white" when compared to the other ethnic groups there. That's part of what I liked about Roma, that it showed similar racial or class-based stratification existing elsewhere just as it does here.
21 hours ago, sycasey 2.0 said:
Being fair skinned, or full blown white, does not erase the fact that he is Mexican though. He is still a Latino man who is also fair skinned and both of those things can exist simultaneously.
5 hours ago, taylor anne photo said:
Yeah, in the USA him being Mexican would supersede all other racial identity for most people. In Mexico I'm sure it's a different story, and indeed I think that's what he made his film about.
Yeah I re-read what you wrote and I definitely see what you mean, but I do also think that in America fair skinned Mexican people are treated faaaaar differently than dark skinned Mexican people. I also think a lot of white Latinx people have their culture erased by idiots here because they don't "look it." I think Oscar Isaac never gets recognized as a Guatemalan man because his skin is far lighter than what people consider as being Latinx. But that also definitely doesn't erase the colorism and racism that happens within these countries as well. I read that Yalitza Aparicio was literally the first woman with indigenous heritage to be on the cover of Vogue Mexico last year, which was WILD to me considering sooo many Mexicans have indigenous heritage!
So... Just caught up with Ash is Purest White (2018/2019 | China). Recommended. Crime drama that spans over a decade. It's on Kanopy, so free for everyone. Not making my best of the decade list - but worth seeing.
Still have An Elephant Sitting Still (2018/2019, China) queued up on the criterion channel. It's a long one, so will hopefully get to it by this weekend.

«Нідерландські прислів'я», також «Фламандські прислів'я»  (), або «Світ догори дриґом» () — картина фламандського художника Пітера Брейгеля Старшого, написана 1559 року, яка зображає буквальні значення нідерландських прислів'їв.

Картина, що виставлена в Берлінській картинній галереї, насичена символами, пов'язаними з нідерландськими прислів'ями та приказками, проте не всі з них розшифровані сучасними дослідниками, бо деякі вислови з часом були забуті.

Його син зробив близько 20 копій роботи батька, причому не всі копії точно відтворюють оригінал, а відрізняються від нього низкою деталей.

Тематика

Збірники прислів'їв та приказок у часи Брейгеля були дуже популярні. Так, наприклад, 1500 року Еразм Ротердамський опублікував збірку крилатих висловів латинських авторів, а Франсуа Рабле описує в опублікованому 1564 року романі Гаргантюа і Пантагрюель зокрема острів прислів'їв. Сам Брейгель 1558 року створив серію картин Дванадцять прислів'їв, що тепер зберігаються у Музеї Маєра ван дер Берга в Антверпені.

Опис
На картині зображено близько сотні відомих прислів'їв, хоча, ймовірно, Брейгель насправді зобразив ще більше, але частина залишилася не розшифрованою до сьогодні. Деякі прислів'я вживаються в нідерландській мові досі, а деякі стали архаїзмами.

Точка спостереження на картині знаходиться на середній висоті, таким чином можливий добрий огляд усіх деталей. Рівень висоти підіймається назад (шибениця й вітрильник намальовані фронтально). Завдяки такому зміщенню кута зору створюється враження додаткової просторової глибини. Головна вісь картини, як то часто буває у Брейгеля, проходить по діагоналі: з лівого нижнього до правого верхнього кута. Млинці (згори ліворуч), що намальовані з порушенням перспективи фронтально, на думку мистецтвознавців є свідомим відхиленням.

Зміст і тлумачення
На картині змальоване щоденне життя у селі на березі моря. Ліворуч на стіні будинку висить догори дриґом земна куля, що символізує збочений світ, в якому люди пошиваються в дурні, займаючись нікчемними мирськими справами. Нижче центру картини вирізняється постать жінки в червоній сукні, яка накинула на свого чоловіка синю пелерину, що символізує подружню зраду. У центрі картини сидить чорт під синім балдахіном і ніби править цим збоченим світом.

Картина Брейгеля відповідає уявленням того часу про те, що у світі панує гріх, зло й людська глупота. Ця тема була також розвинута у літературних творах тієї епохи, таких як «Корабель дурнів» Себастіана Бранта та «Похвала глупоті» Еразма Ротердамського.

У XVII столітті картину, як то зафіксовано в історичних джерелах, називали «Синя пелерина» та «Світ догори дриґом».

What is Reliable Web Hosting?
When a business decides to start a new website, they tend to not be particularly concerned with the type of hosting they will use. Instead, they are focused on getting their site online quickly and generating new sales through information dissemination or e-commerce. However, it is important for anyone planning on creating a website to consider the available options of web hosting and how they might affect their site.
There are many companies that offer cheap web hosting services for small sites. Almost all of them use either Windows or Linux as a hosting platform (there are a few alternatives like Unix or Mac hosting, but these are exceedingly rare). Contrary to popular belief, it is not necessary to use a Windows hosting package if you run Windows on your desktop computer. The hosting server is completely separate from your desktop and is typically accessed through third-party software, so you can use a Linux server even if your desktop is running Windows, OSX, or even Solaris.
Regardless of the type of hosting, the most important concern for any site is to find a reliable web hosting solution. For example, it is vital that the company you select has a guaranteed uptime of 98% percent or higher. This means that the server will be offline for less than fourteen hours a month for maintenance, or other reasons. Most web companies today guarantee 99% uptime and if they fail in delivering this you won't have to pay for that month. Be wary of any company that does not guarantee this minimum amount of uptime.
Another important thing to consider is the possibility of infiltration by a malicious third-party. Though both types of servers continue to improve their security systems, Windows is slightly more prone to hacker attacks because it is built on the Windows framework. Since the majority of viruses and other malicious software is designed specifically to attack Windows, servers based on Windows are a little more vulnerable. However, both types of servers depend primarily on the administrator to maintain security. In other words, it's better to have a competent administrator running a Windows server than a careless administrator running a Linux server.
The third important thing to consider when selecting a reliable web hosting companies is the age of the hosting company. Many newer services offer amazingly inexpensive rates, but the services and support are not always as consistent as with established hosts. There are even instances of companies selling hosting packages only to close down and disappear with their clients' money. Generally speaking, a company younger than two years is risky.
Finding reliable web hosting is a challenge that most new companies and many private individuals will have to face at some point. However, keeping these three points in mind will greatly improve the odds of finding a hosting company that will allow you to focus on actually running your business instead of worrying about your site.
The Beginning of the End of the Ballmer Era at Microsoft?


TORONTO, May 9, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ – Travelling ain't cheap. After flights, hotels and food, there is little left in the wallet for attractions and excursions. This is why so many Canadians travelling on a budget turn to all-inclusive packages where one payment can take care of it all. While this is great for some, the downside is that staying within resort grounds may mean missing out authentic experiences and culture the destination has to offer.
The Hotel Price Index can help travellers find affordable destinations, like Hanoi, to gain authentic cultural experiences.
So what's a world explorer – on a budget – to do? Well, turns out you can have the best of both worlds. The travel experts at Hotels.com® have sorted through their Hotel Price Index™ (HPI™) to find eight interesting destinations where you can have an authentic cultural experience without going broke.
Why go? This nature-filled city is full of classic architecture, culture and great silks – who'd have guessed? If you're an adventurous foodie, the local cuisine may be an enjoyable challenge where cobra is a popular menu item. Hotels in this city experienced price drops of 14 per cent from 2011, making it an affordable option.
Why go? Another city that experienced a significant drop in hotel prices, Siem Reap is known for its friendly locals and exotic temples. There's a lot to do and it may be hard to pick just a few, but a boat tour of Kampong Phluk Floating Village is a must-see.
Why go? Many may have been to Las Vegas, but how many of us can say we've gambled in Reno? This is another 24-hour city that'll satisfy any gambler's desires. For those with a passion for more than cards and tables, this city's location is perfect for active travellers who can indulge in all-season sports and ski in the morning, and kayak in the afternoon.
Why go? If you're looking to party, you won't be disappointed here. Located only 90 minutes from Bangkok, Pattaya is the go-to spot for nightlife and beaches. Hotel prices in this city dropped 8 per cent from 2011, which can only mean one thing – more money for shopping!
Why go? If you're into museums, San Jose has one for everything. Well, not everything, but gold, jade and insects are covered. If you'd rather get outside, plan a visit to the jungle or Poas Volcano National Park to view its impressive craters.
Why go? Skip the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles and head to Sacramento where for four months of the year it's considered the sunniest place on earth. If that alone hasn't sold you, a visit to Old Sacramento might. Travel back in American history, check out some 19th century buildings and take a ride on a historic train or riverboat.
Why go? Located near Frankfurt airport, this scenic town is surrounded by forest and features pretty half-timbered houses, churches and a historic water tower that is often featured in postcards. It may not be as big as Berlin, but the town has plenty to experience with fifteen different festivals throughout the year.
Why go? Grand Prix, La Tomatina, paella and 300 days of sunshine… we're sold. A visit to this classic Spanish city is sure to impress. Plus it's affordable with hotel rates dropping a reported 17 per cent from 2011.
It's time to experience destinations like a local. With so much to see and do and so little time off work, make a resolution to get in some real travel this year – the buffets and wristbands won't be missed, promise.
The HPI is a biannual report that looks at hotel prices in cities all around the world. The data is based on bookings made through the Hotels.com website and the prices listed are the actual prices paid by Canadians – not advertised rates. The report examines prices paid in 2012.
About Hotels.com® (also known in Canada as Hotels.ca) is a leading online accommodation booking brand. Through the Expedia, Inc. global network of websites, Hotels.com, LP connects travellers with over 200,000 properties around the world, ranging from international chains and all-inclusive resorts to local favourites and bed & breakfasts, together with all the information needed to book the perfect stay. Hotels.com, LP benefits from one of the largest hotel contracting teams in the industry, obtaining the best rates for its customers, and offers frequent sales, special deals and promotions.
There are more than 7 million Guest Reviews on the websites from users who have actually stayed in the hotels to ensure customers can make an informed choice when booking. Through Hotels.com's industry-leading loyalty program Welcome RewardsTM, customers can earn a free night for every 10 nights stayed at more than 85,000 hotels. Under its Price Match Guarantee, if a customer can find the same deal for less on a prepaid hotel, Hotels.com, LP will refund the difference. Travellers can book online or by contacting one of the multilingual call centers.
Special apps for mobile phones and tablets can also be downloaded at www.hotels.com/deals/mobile_app/ enabling customers to book on the go with access to 20,000 last minute deals. Hotels.com publishes an award-winning twice-yearly review of international hotel room price trends called the Hotels.com Hotel Price Index™, which is now produced in 31 individual country editions, with North American data available at www.hotel-price-index.com.
I'd really like to be a part of group where I can get suggestions from other knowledgeable individuals that share the same interest. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. Many thanks!

Everyone at CareOne at Ridgewood Avenue took great care of me!
I was admitted to CareOne at Ridgewood Avenue after I had double knee replacement surgery. I was in a lot of pain and could barely move. My legs felt like a ton of bricks. I was a patient at CareOne at Ridgewood Avenue a couple of years ago and I knew that if I wanted to recover successfully after this complicated surgery, there's no other place to go but there.
At the time of admission, my pain was through the roof, I was starting to think that I would never recover from this operation. The doctors and nursing team gave me the right regimen to control the pain so I could work on getting stronger with therapy. Upon initial evaluation, I needed maximum assistance for everything; my legs were both so swollen and felt like jello. I couldn't walk, stairs terrified me and I doubted if I would ever make it out without a wheelchair. I also needed maximum assistance for dressing and getting to the bathroom. I couldn't reach my feet or dress/clean my lower body.
Upon my discharge from CareOne at Ridgewood Avenue, I am able to walk without any device. I can go up the stairs step over step with no assistance. I can even walk on grass, ramps and curbs. I can dress and shower by myself. Everyone at CareOne at Ridgewood Avenue took great care of me and I am going home even better than I was before!

Reinbolt and Gibbs named USA Women's Bobsled National Champions, Bascue and Williamson win two-man title
March 22, 2019, 6:52 p.m. (ET)
Contact: Amanda Bird, USABS Marketing & Communications Director
(518) 354-2250, amanda.bird@usabs.com
LAKE PLACID, N.Y.(March 22, 2019)– Codie Bascue (Whitehall, N.Y.) teamed with Josh Williamson (Lake Mary, Fla.) to win the USA Men's Two-man Bobsled National Championship title at Mount Van Hoevenberg today, while Brittany Reinbolt (Searcy, Ark.) and Lauren Gibbs (Los Angeles, Calif.) claimed the USA Women's Bobsled National Championship title.
Reinbolt and Gibbs have not only earned the naming rights as national champions, but have also earned their spots on the 2019-2020 World Cup team. Bascue and Williamson will compete in the four-man race tomorrow with hopes of securing the combined title in points for their spot on the team.
"To come in and have a berth onto the national team at stake is pretty stressful," Bascue said. "We're trying to get as much out of our bodies and our minds as we can this week after a pretty difficult season."
Bascue and Williamson were the fastest competitors off the start block today with push times of 5.26 and 5.25 seconds. Bascue was scheduled to race with Hakeem Abdul-Saboor, but a lingering injury didn't feel right for Abdul-Saboor while he was warming up and he was replaced last minute with Williamson. Bascue piloted the crew to the finish in 56.64 seconds for the second fastest time of the first heat, and he was able to move into first with a run of 56.93 seconds, fastest time of the second heat. Bascue and Williamson finished 0.23 seconds ahead of the field to claim the two-man title with a total time of 1:53.57.
"It threw us off," Bascue said. "Josh only have five minutes to warm up, so we didn't have the push that we wanted and my first drive wasn't as good as I wanted. Going into the second run I knew we could drop the start and I could drive better. I laid down one of my best runs here of the year, which felt good."
Geoff Gadbois (Milton, Vt.) and Kris Horn (Pembroke, Mass.) finished second with a combined time of 1:53.80. Gadbois and Horn posted impressive starts of 5.28 and 5.32 seconds for runs of 53.70 and 54.18 seconds, respectively. The team was in the lead after the first heat, but they crashed in run two. They were granted a rerun, and Gabdois and Horn raced to the finish with the second best time to secure second place.
Hunter Church (Cadyville, N.Y.) and Christopher Kinney (Stockbridge, Ga.) rallied for third with a two-run total of 1:54.19. The duo posted a start time of 5.29 for a first run of 53.94 seconds, and maintained medal position in run two with a push of 5.32 and downtime of 57.27.
In the women's field, Nicole Vogt (Dallas, Texas) andNicole Brungardt (Norfolk, Neb.) led by 0.07 seconds after the first heat. The duo pushed off in 5.73 seconds for a downtime of 57.87. Reinbolt and Gibbs were powerful off the start with a push time of 5.67 seconds, but Reinbolt lost the lead down the track. The pair was in second place with a finish time of 57.94 seconds, but rallied back in the finale.
Vogt and Brungardt pushed off in 5.79 seconds for a run of 58.42, but it was no match for the second run by Reinbolt and Gibbs. Reinbolt and Gibbs were again fastest off the block with a push time of 5.70 seconds, and Reinbolt maintained the lead to the finish with a 58.27 downtime. Reinbolt and Gibbs secured the women's bobsled title with a combined time of 1:56.21, and the pair has been officially named to the 2019-2020 World Cup team as a result.
Racing continues tomorrow with the skeleton competitions at 10 a.m. EST, followed by four-man bobsled and monobob at 2 p.m.

Macie the service dog (Photo by Courtmay22000 via Wikimedia/CC BY-SA 4.0)
A woman brought her dog to a casual restaurant I dined at recently. I didn't think much of it until the manager came by to tell her that dogs are not permitted inside. Immediately the woman claimed her pet was a service dog. I always try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but based on her defensive reaction, I really don't think this dog was a service dog.
It is wrong to lie about your pet being a service animal. Furthermore, it is a crime.
Service dogs are dogs that have been trained to work or perform tasks for a person with a disability. Guide dogs and hearing dogs assist owners who are blind or have hearing impairments respectively. Emotional support animals are not included under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or New York Civil Rights Law. Only dogs and miniature horses can be service animals.
In New York, the penalty for falsely representing your pet as a service dog is a fine, and on the third offense, up to 15 days imprisonment.
It shouldn't take the threat of jail time to deter you from lying though. The moral concerns should be enough. It is disrespectful to people with disabilities to pretend your dog is a service dog because what you're doing is actually pretending to have a disability yourself. The ADA exists to protect a class of people who would otherwise face discrimination while just trying to live their lives. Don't make light of that by faking a disability.
Additionally, service dogs undergo hundreds of hours of specialized training to become exceptionally well suited for the tasks they are called to perform. A poorly behaved pet masquerading as a service dog only gives service dogs a bad name and makes it harder for true service dogs and owners to get the respect they deserve.
On a practical level, the more animals that enter a place of business, the more hair and dander and scents they leave behind that can be an irritant to humans and a distraction to true service dogs. The owner relies on their dog to help them safely get around and a distracted service dog could lead to their owner getting hurt.
Finally, service dogs are not supposed to interact with other people while they're on the job. If you allow your fake service animal to be pet by strangers, it sends the message that petting service dogs is perfectly acceptable when it is not.
Don't put your desire to bring your dog everywhere above the needs of others—it's selfish, harmful, disrespectful and ultimately illegal.

13 Female Idols Who Became Legends Thanks To These GIFs
These girls may have already been popular idol group members, but these GIFs made them legendary.
Sometimes, all it takes is one simple action, cute facial expression, particularly beautiful moment or sexy instance for a celebrity's popularity to skyrocket. In these cases, it just took one GIF that became the talk of the town and catapulted these female idols's popularity to legendary status. Check out the GIFs that made these women famous – or, at least, even more famous than they already were!
1. Suzy
Now known as the "nation's sweetheart", Suzy began her career as a miss A member – but it was a moment on Running Man in 2011 that earned her her first nickname, "flower girl Suzy". This cheesy smile, combined with her stunningly casual visuals, first put her into the minds and hearts of South Koreans.
2. Sohee
This moment, filmed as part of MTV's My Wonder Girls during Wondergirls' debut in 2008, gave the young Sohee the rather unforgettable nickname "dumpling" (mandu) because of her round face. Although she has lost her chubby cheeks and gone on to have a successful career as a singer and actress, Sohee will forever be known as "mandu Sohee".
3. Taeyeon (Girls' Generation)
In 2010, DAUM released individual screensavers for the Girls' Generation members and Taeyeon's cute aegyo went viral! Although Taeyeon was already popular for her talent, visuals and dedication to hard work, the adorable screen saver showed fans another side of her – and it's adorable.
4. HyunA
While HyunA was a popular member of group 4MINUTE, her solo career really took off during her Bubble Pop tour in 2011. She wore a memorable rose-print dress, but it was her sexy dance moves that pushed her far into the spotlight – earning her the nickname "rose knife", after a popular Korean infomercial on TV at the time. This knife was supposedly the most badass knife in existence and could "cut down almost anything in one slice."
5. Kyungri (9MUSES)
Kyungri's charisma and sexy charm was on full display in 9MUSES's "Wild" MV in 2013, and this gif became the talk of South Korea thanks to Kyungri's seductive vibes. It is widely believed the "Wild" era was Kyungri's most legendary for looks so far.
6. Hani (EXID)
Hani was made famous due to a moment caught on fancam during EXID's performance of "Up Down" in 2014. In the chorus, the choreography involves some rocking hip action and Hani took it to a whole new level, skyrocketing her popularity in the process. The fancam has been viewed almost 30 million times on Youtube.
7. Hyeri (Girl's Day)
In 2014, Hyeri took part in the army show Real Men. When it was time to say goodbye, she became teary-eyed and displayed an impressive aegyo while saying farewell to the male officer known as the Terminator. The move made her the most popular member of Girl's Day at the time and associated her with the "iiiing!" sound she made while shaking the officer's hand.
8. Seungyeon (KARA)
Seungyeon became the queen of pigtails when she wore the style during KARA's
Jet Coaster Love concert in Japan in 2015, with many netizens saying they didn't know she was so pretty and that although the style is really hard to pull off well, she nailed it! She became known as "fairy Seungyeon".
9. Seolhyun (AOA)
Seolhyun was already known for her sexy body and beautiful face thanks to her run in several successful advertising campaigns, but it was the way she walked in tight leather pants during a 2016 Kloud CF that cemented her status as goddess.
10. Yoona (Girls' Generation)
The way Yoona handled a technical malfunction during a Girls' Generation performance in 2016 became legendary as she gestured and mouthed "the mike [sound] isn't coming out". Netizens were blown away by her beauty even under pressure!
11. Sana (TWICE)
When Sana appeared on an episode of Knowing Bros in 2017, she participated in a version of Chinese whispers involving noise cancelling headphones. She captured hearts with her cute ageyo pronunciation of the intended words "cheese kimbab" and is now synonymous with cheese kimbab!
12. Chaeyeon (DIA)
Jung Chaeyeon finished up 7th on Produce 101's first season and became a member of DIA, but she was first known as the program's "ending fairy", thanks to her smooth and pretty visuals at the end of her performances on the show. It was so popular that she even parodied her ending expression on SNL Korea.
13. Irene (Red Velvet)
Irene performed a short sexy dance to Camilla Cabello's "Havana" at the SBS Super Concert in Taipei earlier this year, and although the Red Velvet member already had plenty of fans, this clip of her seductive dance earned her many more. The cute but mesmerising way she danced had fans praising her beauty and talent.
